[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think maybe the character(s) you like the best are the ones you most relate to. I don't think Randall and Beth are any more three-dimensional than Kate, Kevin, and Rebecca. I think Randall has fewer flaws as a person -- Kate IS a bit victim-y, and Kevin has lived a very narcissistic life, but part of any good movie or show is the complex, not-all-good-or-bad characters. Sometimes I think both Randall and William are less interesting because they are so "good." I mean, if I had to marry one of the Big Three, Randall, hands down, right? But a good show/movie needs flawed and complicated people to make it interesting.[/quote]

I'm not sure it's the ones we relate to best as the ones who are goals. Clearly reading this forum many do not have the Randall-Beth marriage. But it is fabulous to see such a healthy give-and-take marriage on screen and thriving. Neither Randall nor Beth seem to me to be without flaws but they are portrayed as working to live their own best lives. I think that was the point of Randall walking away from his job and Beth getting freaked out by the pregnancy scare last year and them processing that together.[/quote]
